Financial Times, 28 January 2013, Della Bradshaw
Zeger Degraeve does not hang around. It is little more than a year since the quietly spoken Belgian left Europe for Australia to become dean of Melbourne Business School (MBS), but in that time he has certainly proven his credentials as a decision-making guru.
He has revamped the MBA and executive MBA programmes, increased the faculty of the business school by 20 per cent and resolved the long-standing governance conflict that divided the University of Melbourne and MBS.

Tuck's Center for Digital Strategies - Tech@Tuck • Tuck School of Business February 7, 2013
Experts from a range of companies explored how big data will change a trip to the mall, online shopping or a vacation to Las Vegas. The discussion covered the kinds of information that companies can and will use to better serve and understand their customers. This exploration also sought insights into what is already changing and what will change as big data allows enterprises to dig deeper into consumer preferences. Companies, of course, want to better target would-be patrons without eroding consumers’ sense of privacy.

The Complex World of Fertility Webcast, TEDxNorthwesternU
"Teams dominate"Published on 12 Jul 2012
What does the world's largest repository (Thomson Web of Science) of more than 26 million scientific papers tell us about trends in the production of scientific knowledge? There appears to be a nearly universal end to the era of the solo scientist and a rise in the supremacy of teams. The advantage of teams is growing and frontier of knowledge is reached through the invisible but complex networks through which scientists assemble teams.in Professor, Research, Video | Permalink | Comments (0)

"Life in Venice", December 17, 2012 by Felix Valdivieso in The other side of ie Professors
Back in October when I first spoke about shooting this video of the Dean of IE University’s School of Architecture, Javier Quintana, he said he would like to compare the architecture of Venice with the architecture of New York, more specifically the Campanile in Piazza San Marco and the Metropolitan Tower. Coincidentally enough I had to travel to New York at the end of that month and had the opportunity to film some of the places he wanted to talk about. Then, in November, I joined him on a business trip to Venice. I had a great time, partly because there aren’t many cities that can beat Venice on a sunny day, or any other day for that matter, and partly because he spoke with such passion and knowledge about the two cities that I gained a new perspective of every corner, every square, and every tower.
Unfortunately, I couldn’t fit all the interesting things he said into this video, and he didn’t only talk about architecture, but also about music, cinema, and life in general. So there I had no room left to say anything about either the amazing Schubert or the fabulous Death in Venice (both the film and the book). I decided to focus more on the life side of things. You’ll be interested to know that Dean Quintana is really good company when it comes to looking round shops.
As you might have imagined already, there was only one way this could end and that is with some excellent Bellini cocktails at Harry’s Bar.
P.S.: Don´t miss Martin Rico´s (1833-1908) Venice paintings at Prado Museum. Only till February 2013.

Video uploaded on Oct 19, 2012. Sir Ronald Cohen, chairman of Big Society Capital, speaks with McKinsey's Ian Davis about the opportunities and challenges of financing social investments and the parallels he sees between these activities and the rise of the venture-capital industry.
A cofounder and former chairman of Apax Partners, Sir Ronald Cohen pioneered the British venture-capital industry. Over the past decade, he has also stood at the vanguard of social investing. When Britain established its first social-investment bank, Big Society Capital, in 2011, Sir Ronald was named its chairman.

"Life in the academic lanes", October 26, 2012, By Della Bradshaw of The Financial Times
As James Ellis – or Jim as he prefers to be known – leans back in his chair in the Financial Times offices in London and explains the benefits of online learning, it is clear he is not the usual bookish business school dean. “It (online learning) will allow a student in Fargo, Dakota to talk to one in Aberdeen, Scotland,” explains the top dog at the Marshall school at the University of Southern California. What is more, he adds, he has played golf in both locations – in Aberdeen, he emphasises, in the rain.
It is easy to conjure up a picture of the 65-year old former retail executive on the golf course, but this shrewd businessman has also proved his worth as a business-school dean, a job he has held for the past six years and for which he clearly still has tremendous enthusiasm. “I can’t tell you how much fun it is,” he says.

Fons Trompenaars

Fons Trompenaars is one of the world's leading experts on cross-cultural communication and international management. Together with long-time collaborator Charles Hampden-Turner, Trompenaars developed a model of national cultures based on seven dimensions: universalism vs. particularism; individualism vs. collectivism; neutral vs. emotional; specific vs. diffuse; achievement vs. ascription; sequential vs. synchronic; and internal vs. external control.
The model, developed after extensive research across over 60 cultures and 100.000 managers, helps explain how people in different national cultures interact with each other in general and in business.
Trompenaars is the author of the award winning Riding the Waves of Culture, Understanding Cultural Diversity in Business (1994). With Charles Hampden-Turner, he also wrote Seven Cultures of Capitalism; Building Cross-Cultural Competence; and 21 Leaders for the 21st Century.
In 2009, Trompenaars published Innovating in a Global Crisis: Riding the Whirlwind of Recession, a different take on creativity and innovation, also written with Hampden-Turner. The book looks at how innovation is central to sustained growth.

CNBC September 14, 2012, "Euro Zone Epicenter of ‘Worst Crisis Since WWII’: Trichet"
The euro zone’s debt crisis is just the center of an “adjustment” which is affecting all advanced economies, former European Central Bank (ECB) President Jean-Claude Trichet told CNBC.

Jean-Claude Trichet
“The Europeans have a special responsibility because we are the epicenter of the worst crisis since World War II. And that, of course, calls for highly responsible decisions,” he said.
All the advanced economies are undergoing their first major adjustment since the Second World War, according to Trichet.
“When you look with historical credit at what has happened since 2007, it was the start of the adjustment of the advanced economy. We have to understand-- it's our turn. We cannot ask the rest of the world to finance us eternally if we spend more than we earn. As simple as that,” he said.
“We paid quite a high price for a dominant vision, which was too much benign neglect before the start of the crisis.”...

www.guykawasaki.com/enchantment/audio-video/ This is the full, one-hour version (plus slides) of Guy’s Enchantment speech at Stanford
Guy Kawasaki: The most powerful, single way to enchant someone you're working for may seem painful, but I have to explain it to you. The answer to that question is, when your boss asks you to do something, no matter how busy you are, no matter what else you're doing, no matter how important you think what you're doing is to the organization or yourself, no matter how suboptimal you may think it is to be interrupted, you should drop everything and do what your boss asks. If you simply do that, you will be an enchanting employee. Sounds painful, may be irritating, but that's the key to enchanting your boss.

Open source software and methods make large-scale collaborative research projects feasible, multiplying the brainpower applied to a project, expanding the data pool, and creating transparency and accountability. This is a huge win for the advancement of new treatments and cures, and cutting the costs of research. Open source practice and records software cut the costs of running medical practices, and puts practitioners in charge instead of software vendors...

Dartmouth College’s Tuck School of Business is transforming the way it teaches many of its MBA core classes, delivering portions of them online via video lectures, and using online quizzes and discussion boards. About a dozen Tuck professors are participating in the effort, using videos to teach introductory material in classes such as Managerial Economics, Statistics for Managers, Corporate Finance, and Operations Management, the school said...
...
Tuck Dean Paul Danos, who spearheaded the pilot program this school year, says he got the idea after doing an online tutorial with his granddaughter on Khan Academy, the nonprofit education website that offers thousands of free YouTube-based lessons.
“I was doing the lesson with her and I thought, Why can’t we do something similar to the Khan Academy?” says Danos. “I told professors anything you can put up on a whiteboard should be put up in advance so you can have more time in the classroom for conversation and face-to-face interaction.”...
...The videos have proved to be a success so far; in a survey of 134 first-year MBA students who took Kopalle’s class this fall, about 80 percent of students said they found the videos to be a useful part of their overall class experience and liked the technology, while 72 percent said it improved the way they learned the material...
